“I live on a farm in Dorset. The nearest neighbour is a quarter of a mile away. I…” — Martin Clunes

I think people need entertaining, and they like being entertained. That's all I do. I don't do anything important; I just work in entertainment.

We have a fair on our farm every year - a gymkhana and a dog show and a funfair and a heavy-horse show. It was my idea. Be careful what you wish for - it's a monster.

The idea of being a young 50 sounds like you're trying to kid yourself, like a Harley-Davidson or something. I've bought a dressage horse instead.

For years, I was either referred to as a 'rubber-faced funny man' or 'the 'Men Behaving Badly' star.'
